Chapter 645: Big Things and Small Things

Rolls-Royce's car-making technology is perfect and advanced, and its factories can even manufacture aircraft engines, which was once a military enterprise. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Today, Boeing's passenger planes use engines made by Rolls-Royce, but Rolls-Royce's engine manufacturing division has been controlled by the German BMW Group in 1990, and Rolls-Royce only owns about 28% of the shares.

This company has a large number of automobile manufacturing and design experts, which is exactly what Han Xuan needs at present.

At the end of 1994, after getting a sum of money from the Mexican economic crisis and transferring $2 billion to Snow Mountain Investment Company, Han Xuan still had more than $1.6 billion left in his account, which was sufficient.

Afraid of being preempted by Volkswagen and BMW, he asked Anthony to contact the British Vickers company in his name.

In addition to the detailed information of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, there is also a handwritten letter from Mr. Dan Hemsworth, President of Vickers, by fax.

There are only three lines on it:

$470 million.

Cash.

The company stays in the UK......

If it was a complete Rolls-Royce, in the face of these requests, maybe Han Xuan would have agreed to it, and it was worth the price.

Unfortunately, not.

This information shows that the trademark of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is in the hands of Rolls-Royce Aircraft Engines.

It only has the right to use the brand and the right to use the Flying Goddess and the front radiator grille.

The trademark is controlled by the German BMW Group, in case BMW no longer authorizes the "Rolls-Royce" brand to be used by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in the future.

Then it is equivalent to spending nearly half a billion US dollars, and it can only use its Bentley brand to install the Flying Goddess logo, which is completely nondescript and obviously not cost-effective.

He wanted to discuss it with Anthony, but he and Dr. Ratman hid in the office, not knowing what to talk about, and still haven't come out.

Looking at the time, more than forty minutes have passed.

If Ratman hadn't agreed, it would have ended a long time ago, and maybe there was a real possibility of buying that part of the shares.

In the blank space, it is written: get the permanent license of the brand and the right to use the engine, or buy the BMW Group, Rolls-Royce Aircraft Engine shares, or only buy Bentley......

Gongguang Magic's side.

Lucas didn't agree after all, and sold the film special effects company alone.

But he is willing to sell 24% of the shares of Gongguang Demon Industry for $135 million, so that the company is still controlled by him, but he can return a large amount of money.

Han Xuan pondered for a while, it was only a matter of time before Lucasfilm would decline, and with shares in his hands, it would be easier to acquire it when the time came.

In the blank space of the document, he wrote "get the right of first refusal acquisition and financing", and put it together with the other two documents after signing.

Then there is the matter of Snow Mountain Real Estate Company.

The 3.2 square kilometers of land in Brooklyn, New York, is Han Xuan's private property, and it is now handed over to a real estate company to help take care of it.

A brief introduction to Coney Island, which is now being cleared of old buildings.

Another Chinese document is the formal lease agreement for the land in Lujiazui and the Bund 12.

With Han Xuan's signature, when the money is transferred, it will be regarded as belonging to the Snow Mountain Investment Company.

In addition, a thick stack of contracts is Han Xuan's private real estate, including those shops in Ginza, Japan, a total of eight courtyard houses and a royal mansion bought in Yanjing.

The permanent right to use the land at No. 10 Dalang Bay Road, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong Island, has also officially become Han Xuan's, and the transferor is Mr. Han.

The document does not go through the U.S. government, but is a traditional version of the contract, which can save the gift tax......

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Anya often looking at him, Han Xuan stood up curiously and walked over.

I found that she was holding a pen to draw a portrait sketch, so she drew a rough outline and smiled: "This is me?"

"Well, sit back and you'll be done in a few minutes. ”

Han Xuan was suspicious, the last time he was a model, he suffered a lot of losses from Mrs. Cecilia.

Eye contact with Anya, seeing that she was very serious, was going to believe her once, return to her place, and sit down as she had just done.

The time gradually changed from 2:45 p.m. to 3:20 p.m., and sure enough, I still fell for the devil!

Finally hearing Anya say that the painting was ready, Han Xuan twisted his neck, complained in his mouth, and came to her.

In the white paper, there is a simple sketch drawn with a black pen, the lines are particularly delicate, and the image is vivid.

As for the portrait of the painting, Han Xuan can't see his side face, so he can't figure it out, but it looks quite handsome, so it should be like it.

Clamping the painting in a book, holding Anya's hand, "Go out for a walk, sit on the back pain......"

……

Old Charlie, the executive officer of HOPE Technology, arrived at the headquarters at four o'clock and begged Han Xuan for forgiveness.

Han Xuan didn't care about this matter at all, and after discussing with him about the sales growth of GG shopping network today, he was full of smiles.

He continued: "Arrange for people to make software in foreign languages, with a focus on Europe and Asia.

Customize some more servers to IBM, I don't know the specific number, you can see it.

If there are more than 300,000 computers in any country, there will be a branch of ours, let me know after the survey. ”

Old Charlie suggested, "Boss, isn't it too early to expand?"

There are no problems with the technical side, but the company is short of people.

With so many branches, there are simply not enough people. ”

"I didn't let you come right away, the money I injected was about to be distributed to you.

Buy what you don't need, recruit if you don't have people, and have half a year to prepare an expansion plan, is it enough?

Isn't it possible to listen to music on the computer now, let the hardware department set up a project and try to make a special thing for listening to music.

Copy the audio file to a separate memory and release it on a small machine.

This plan is kept secret first, it doesn't matter if the commercial technology can't be reached, the production method is clarified first, and the funds need to be allocated to them first. ”

"Okay, the hardware department has recruited a lot of newcomers, and I'm worried that I don't have a project for them to experiment.

After negotiating with Motorola, we need to buy a total of 113 technology licenses from them.

In addition to 17 that cannot be bought out, the other 97 are quoted for $5.8 million, which is only allowed to be used exclusively by HOPE Technologies.

The other 17 could be granted for 10 years, and after talking to them, the term was increased to 12 years.

For each mobile phone made, Motorola is given about $22 in patent fees, which cannot be lowered. ”

When Han Xuan heard the $22, his face was like eating a fly.

If you sell 1 million mobile phones, you will have to give Motorola 22 million patent royalties, and 10 million units is more than 200 million.

Thinking about it this way, Han Xuan would rather give it more than 200 million, because that means that his company's mobile phones are sold more.

He said to old Charlie: "Can't you buy it out directly?"

It's only been a long time, talk to them again. ”

Old Charlie said helplessly: "I called, and as soon as I said authorization, the other party quoted me the total price."

Recently, too many people have bought it from it, and they don't promise to reduce the price at all.

Subtract the simple patents that we can bypass, and in the end we need to pay so much money or not sell. ”

“…… It's arrogant. ”

"No way, the patent is with them. ”

"Well, promise to come down.

Produce a day earlier, make money a day earlier, and it hurts me to think that Motorola can take $22 without doing anything.

The production line has started, right?

As soon as I got the authorization, I contacted the supplier, and started production after registering with the government, and there was too much inventory, so I planned to upgrade the phone once every six months.

Let the hardware engineering department work harder, strive to build the next generation of pocket-sized mobile phones, and if we get the patent, we will buy it to Motorola, and charge it $44 for a piece!"

Old Charlie opened his mouth to say that it was very unlikely, and then closed his mind again.

After Anthony saw off Dr. Ratman, he came to Han Xuan's office.

He poured himself a glass of water, raised his head and drank it, sighed, and said, "That guy is really black, he will ask me for 500 million when he opens his mouth."

I decided that I wanted to buy his shares, and I refused to ......reduce the price at all." (To be continued.) )
